Summary
"DCOM is an enabling technology, but it is also perceived as being difficult to use. During training courses I've given, people have expressed this concern, often suggesting that they could use Windsock or RPC solutions. My response was to demonstrate how DCOM can actually simplify your code by providing a solid infrastructure that could take months to develop with those old technologies. I aim to show you the same thing. If you're already comfortable with COM, you're probably interested in extending your knowledge beyond the confines of a single machine. I'll show you how to configure your existing components for remote use and, more importantly, how you can create new components that exploit core DCOM functionality." -- Richard Grimes

Who is this book for?
This book is for Win32 programmers taking up the challenge of building distributed applications using the new component object model. Although there is strong emphasis under COM.
